If Hewitt gets through this next match, you've gotta think he's going to be incredibly pumped up. I mean even for Hewitt. If he can just get over that hump he's going to be psyched, even more fiery than he usually is. I'd imagine he'll become a different player.

I believe that the pressure of winning at home will be too much. That, plus the fact that he has never even made the quarter finals in this tourney makes me believe that he is due to lose...maybe to Nadal.

I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit. - Mitch Hedberg

I bet Hewitt won the all important number of times screaming "COME ON" stat.

You know that thing where Hewitt points at his eyes? I saw J Johannson do that, too. Anybody know the story behind that move? Homeboy is looking strong! But they said he was having hip problems, so despite his supreme fitness it looks like Hewitt may be having physical problems the remainder of this tournament.

Roddick's opponent has a fantastic looking backhand, but, yeah, he basically overachieved this tournament. As good as his backhand is, his game on whole is pretty unremarkable. Not enough power. He's scrappy.

I'm predicting a Nalbandian Vs Roddick semi: Hewitt has had some long matches and is struggling with a hip problem. Nalbandian has more powerful groundies than Hewitt and, although you can point out the Wimbledon finall, Nalbandian is much better now than he was then and he was hampered by nerves that day.
